Dear all,

to reproduce this issue, please download the following image:

    https://www.metalevel.at/ei/202202.png

Then start Emacs with

    $ emacs -Q

and evaluate the following form to obtain the image's size in pixels:

    (let ((img (create-image "202202.png")))
      (image-size img t))

In my case, this yields:

    (30 . 30)

This occurs even though the image dimensions in pixels are actually 202x202:

    $ identify 202202.png
    202202.png PNG 202x202 202x202+0+0 8-bit sRGB 6502B 0.000u 0:00.009

Is there a way to obtain this size in pixels with image-size?

The value of max-image-size in my configuration is nil.

Thank you and all the best!
Markus

I cannot reproduce this: I get (202 . 202), both in Emacs 27.1 and in
the current master version.

Maybe this is macOS-specific?

This happens when Emacs isn't able to find the image.  Specify the full
image file name in create-image instead of using a relative one.

Closing.

Why could Eli not reproduce it though? Is this difference between
operating systems expected?

Thank you and all the best,
Markus

Presumably he evaluated the form with the current directory in the
directory the file was in.

That's what I did too, and yet I only get (30 . 30) as I reported.
I used $ emacs -Q in the same directory where the image resides.

Do you get this if the image file name is in absolute form, with all
the leading directories?

No: Using an absolute file name, or a file name that starts with "~"
works as expected. For you, using a relative file also worked?

Relative file names of images aren't expanded against the current
directory.  I guess this factoid is part of the problem.

It will, if the file is in the "right" place.

What do you think Emacs does when you use relative image file names in
create-image?

I would hope it does the same thing it does for every other function I
know where relative file names are used: Use the file from the current
working directory, i.e., default-directory. However, as far as I can
tell, create-image is currently unexpectedly not doing this reliably, or
at least not on OSX, even though it seems to do it on your system.

No, it doesn't do that.  It looks up relative file names along
image-load-path.  The reason is that image files are many times
displayed on the tool bar and the fringes, which are not specific to a
buffer, and thus we cannot possibly ensure default-directory is always
set to the right place when we display those.

I used an absolute file name in my tests, because, obviously, the file
you posted doesn't live here in the same directory as on your system.

So I think we now understand the reason for the problem, and there's
nothing else we should do here.

The `create-image' docstring says:

    Image file names that are not absolute are searched for in the
    "images" sub-directory of ‘data-directory’ and
    ‘x-bitmap-file-path’ (in that order).

Does this need clarifying?

I added a more accurate sentence there:

    "Create an image from FILE-OR-DATA.
  FILE-OR-DATA is an image file name or image data.  If it is a relative
  file name, the function will look for it along `image-load-path'.

But I failed to remove the one you mention, which is somewhat
misleading.  Now done.
